No problems in this part of Geleen-Zuid. Good neighbourhood, clean environment. Public transport to the station and centre could be better.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living in Sittard-Geleen for just over half a year. I'm originally from Hoensbroek/Heerlen, and although that's not the tidiest place, I do feel safe there. At Zuidhof there are ALWAYS homeless people, junkies, alcoholics and many foreigners. Drugs and crime are too prevalent here in my opinion. I also find it totally unpleasant to live here without a driving licence or other means of transport. Every flat has rubbish that the municipality barely cleans up or does nothing about. Noise nuisance is probably one of the things that bothers me most here... think extremely loud music on a weekday at half past one in the morning... this happens daily and also at weekends. Nothing is done about it despite the complaints... In short, I think it's a really shitty place to live!!!

Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a lot of shouting in the street or in the neighbours' garden, not only during the day but especially in the evenings and at night. You also hear dogs barking 24/7 and there is a lot of fireworks. There are many homeless people drinking in public, even during the day. They also leave beer cans lying around everywhere. It's only because it's cheap to live here and there is currently no other housing option elsewhere that we live here. But we would have preferred to have left here a long time ago. The plus point is that within a 10-minute walk you are in the middle of nature. There is a supermarket nearby. But we prefer to take the car to a better supermarket that is not within walking distance.
